Career questions tagged manga
Which career would suit me based on the way I think and what I enjoy.?
One thing I've noticed is that I'm fairly good at reading people's emotions and picking up on how they're feeling, even when they don't say it directly. I'm also naturally curious about why people think and behave the way they do. If I could, I'd love to understand the mind of the person in front of me. I love mythology a lot and love learning about different myths(got this love from Percy Jackson) Another thing about me is that I rarely accept an idea at face value. Whenever I support a statement, I almost immediately start thinking of its weaknesses. After a minute or two of deep thought, I can usually come up with a convincing argument against it. Then I often find myself questioning that argument too, creating another opposing statement. And the series of contradictions goes on. Plus, I love those high and mighty rivalry talks you mostly get to see between enemies and all. Makes me feel royal- and I love feeling royal. I am fairly good at academics, but I tend to forget it easily. And I particularly don't like Science much. Because in physics and chemistry, most of the things aren't very clear; I am still unable to get the meaning of velocity(How does distance play a role in it...So I take it as speed in displacement) Outside of academics, I love reading manga, manhwa, and books, especially fantasy, science fiction, psychological, and mystery stories. I also enjoy anime—both mainstream series and those with deeper psychological or philosophical themes. I'm drawn to stories that explore complex characters, moral dilemmas, and human nature more than series that only contain battles. Some of them I love are: Percy Jackson, A Song of Ice and Fire, One Piece, Tokyo Revengers, Naruto, Tomodachi Games and thousands of others.But, I am no good at drawing. I'm especially interested in psychology, human behaviour, and understanding how people think. I would love to read the mind of the person in front of me. One thing I know for sure is that I don't want a job where I spend the entire day sitting alone reading or reviewing long documents, reports or graphs(I hate statistics). I have considered careers like a detective specialised in psychology, a forensic psychologist, an author and all. I would love a career with some adventure. Based on this, what careers do you think would genuinely fit my personality, strengths, and interests? I'm looking for suggestions beyond the obvious ones like "psychologist,"(I could consider it, but it's not the best one) especially careers that involve analysis, investigation, strategy, behaviour, or decision-making. Also, the career should have a good salary. But please, try to recommend me a career that would be kind of adventorous for me, one that I would enjoy.
